The brand-new fundraising event will be held in the grounds of Newark Castle over the weekend of Saturday October 29 and Sunday October 30.

Fun in the creepy carn-evil

The two-day Halloween festival will also feature pumpkin carving — with a prize for the most creative pumpkin, face painting from 12pm to 3pm and a prize for best fancy dress.

On the Saturday, the Newark Ghost Walk will take place at 5.30pm, with tickets on sale for £10 per person, which includes a hot drink and tour.

Host, Ian Gillanders, will guide the fascinating, unique, ghost walk from Newark Castle and through the old market town, steeped in history and ghostly going ons.
